- 1st ClubSwan 50 class Stella Maris of August Schra
- 1st ClubSwan 36 class Cuordieone of John-Christian de Champs
The Swan Tuscany Challenge racing opened on Wednesday – and with four different winners in each of the four races held the competition looks like it will be wide open across the two one-design fleets.
On a day of varied conditions out on the Gulf of Follonica results on the water confounded some of the expectations generated in the practice race, as well as the form book from previous seasons.
